Assistant U.S. Attorney 500 S. Australian Ave, Suite 400 West Palm Beach FL 33401 Phone Fax 561 820-8777 --Original Message-- From: Roy BLACK [mailto:RBLACK(groyblaciccom] Sent WcAnnc,l..t. Mnyn,hpr 76 flflR 11:56 AM To: Cc: Subject: Re: Jeffrey Epstein Po since receipt of your letter I have looked into the situation and e lowing is what is happening: Mr. Epstein has not breached the Non-Prosecution Agreement (the "Agreement") by serving a portion of his 18-month sentence of imprisonment in the Palm Beach County Work Release Program. 1. He is currently serving his sentence in the Palm Beach County Work Release Program, not in the State-Regulated Community Control Program. Thus he is not on community control. o The County Jail sentence he is presently serving is being served under the auspices of the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office. o The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office has a policy of allowing work release under certain criteria for those sentenced to the Palm Beach County Detention Center or Stockade. It has already been determined that Mr. Epstein qualifies under the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office policy for work release. The Florida statute authorizing work release for someone imprisoned in county jail is at 951.24 (2Xa). o The statute provides that when punishment by imprisonment in the county jail is prescribed, the sentencing court, in its discretion, may at any time during the sentence consider granting the privilege to the prisoner to leave the confines of the jail or county facility during necessary and reasonable hours, EFTA00014038
